Thursday into Friday
I would have posted yesterday and I entirely meant to, if only to scream, "Harry Potter is coming out JULY TWENTY-FIRST!!!" Life interupted and I never got around to it.
L. one of my new best friends in the world--helped me get price quotes for Micci's birthday party next weekend. I didn't even ask her--she just did it. So totally awesome. She is also wrangling all the kid invites...since well she knows a TON of kids and I know one besides my own two.
We went to a friend's house (B.) to help her with her taxes (our social calender becomes full the first weeks of February as all our friends ask us for tax help). In return for Jamey's help (I do nothing at thsi point just show up bearing a nice potted plant), she cooks us a nice German dinner. It was delicious, but I couldn't enjoy it. My head has taken to being a barometer again and right around 7 until I don't know 9 when I realised a few pain pills would take care of the unrelenting pressure and pain. Yep, right around 7 was when the cold front marched into town, I heard it snowed in some partsof North Texas.
I think the headache fried a few brains cells because normally I would have refused the coffee offer, with not having too much in my stomach and the late hour--caffiene has been known to do unpleasant things to my head and heart. All evening and into the night I felt on the edge of a panic attack...not a fun place to be. I was shaking and my brain was racing. And that mug was HUGE. So I pretty much tossed and turned last night while visions of knitted items of the future danced in my head.
Sigh.
I finished Q's presents and they will be mailed tomorrow. One of the gifts is LAST years as in 2005 Christmas present. Yeah, I suck I know. But this eyars gifts I hope will make up for it. I'll post pics once I write up the pattern and I know Q-ness has recieved her prezzie.
And so I have begun my SOCKS! Just a guage swatch but still I have started. I am using my Lorna's Lace in Somerset colorway. So far it's going to be a plain toe up stockinette sock. I want to get the most out of this yarn. Hmmm nice proper wooly yarn.
As requested I made Jamey's black beans. He's the only one not totally fond of my Birdy's baked beans--he says they are too sweet. Blah. Well his black beans taste like dirt. Lorelei sided with her Daddy, she loves the beans. Mic sided with me and proclaimed, "It tastes terrible. This won't make me grow at ALL." I was albe to get them seasoned so I could tolerate a few bites, but it just makes me really want my Birdy's Baked Beans.
